Sometimes, honest people don't now what they have ... Like the elderly woman from Maine who had a SF Hess baseball card (a real one) and insisted that she 'wasn't taking less than $20 for it.' And, for the record, she had kept it in a desk drawer.

Or a well known autograph dealer who was offering a nice but 'inexpensive' little Smoky Joe Woods autographed photo. Offering it, he had scans of the front and back, as the back had a variety of wear. Little did he know that that Charles Conlon stamp and signature raised the value about $200.
